New Eden: Live to Play, Play to Live

In a world of constant competition, one man aims for the top. In this new genre VRMMORPG, he plans on becoming the strongest at all costs. The classes, the races, the starting zones, everything is a mystery in 'New Eden'. This game is coming out without a shred of details. The only thing that was promoted was the freedom of skill choosing. Our protagonist Alexander, gamer tag Astaroth, has always dreamt of becoming an E-Sports athlete. His parents supported his dream, but they are no longer of this world. He fully intends on making it in this new game, if not for him, then at least to honor their memory. With no idea how he wants to play his character, Alexander chooses the most mysterious starting race. Will this be his road to success or his downfall? The game assistant certainly thought the latter. "Do as you wish, young adventurer. I only wish to add this. Do not come back with complaints when you realize you have made the wrong choice," the elf said, looking at him with clear hatred. "We will see about that," Alexander flatly replied. "I love challenges," he added. "Very well!" the elf harrumphed. "Have the adventure of your lifetime, as short as it will last," he sarcastically added. Ahead of him lies an uncertain path, filled with trials and hardships. But one thing is clear in his eyes. He will become the strongest player in the game, even if he must step over mountains of corpses to do so. Over are his days of working hard for nothing, it's make or break now! I now have a discord where you can talk with other readers and me. There are also channels to discuss new weapons; characters; classes; or monsters that you might want to design and see incorporated in the story. I will always give credit to the person that created said thing, rest assured. The link is https://discord.gg/68kPqbSFrN

Pulling The Web

Astaroth frowned as the combat stretched from seconds to minutes. He realized he was only on the defensive and couldn't do much more.

The more time passed, the closer Mel'gaz got to him. His incessant taunting was also annoying.

"Come on, mortal! Give me something more than just a barrier to play with! All this power at your disposal, and you hide behind walls! Don't be a coward!"

Astaroth figured he could fight him mano-a-mano if he wanted to. But then, would he be able to win?

Right now, his best bet was buying time.

***

Back over the hill, almost a mile away, Phoenix had finally reached an area where the pulses of demonic Aether no longer reached. But she was devastated.

"Can I really do nothing? This can't be right…"

It repugned her to be pushed out of the equation like this. Even if she knew she would get stronger, in time, it annoyed her that two players who were weaker than her were unaffected by the pulses.
